757466 2009-03-21 09:00:00 hey i am sorry man, i didn't read the post# 14

i read and tried that. and guess what it worked. and my system started to work faster.

but when i was trying that process. than my 1 TB HDD arrived. so i am now installing it.

so, was all of the problem really came from PIO Mode?

757467 2009-03-21 09:03:00 Yup if any of the hdds were in PIO mode, thats probably why it was going slow Speedy Gonzales (78)
757468 2009-03-21 09:04:00 man, i don't wanna bother you guys any more. but i just wanted to ask you guys, that, can i be safe after installing the 1 TB HDD.

bcz, i can't really afford buying new motherboard or something right now. i spend too much money in last 3 months on my PC.
